That has to take top spot for upsets. Granted, Sjow over Life is up there and is a huge upset, but QXC's run was awesome. | ||

And then he pulls his shit together, controls his nerves and plays superbly. It's just awesome to see. Actually it looked more like life lost his nerve. Surprising really. | ||

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that this IS in fact the greatest foreigner upset of a Korean that I've ever seen. | ||

Life dropped 2 maps in this tournament already. One to miniraser and one to PiG. Edit: nvm you ment bo3. But that's the format of DH and Life knew that as well | ||

It's been a while, but I feel that MC (durring TSL3) was not considered super strong in PvT. Second, Thorzain not only was already on a roll before meeting MC. Sjow hasn't really done anything this tournament that made anyone think that he's anything other than a former "occasional online cup winner". I think this is by far a greater upset than Tfunk>MC (although that's still one of the top 5 series of all time in my book). How many Life HoTS ZvTs have we seen? | ||

Sjow obvisously happy, btu quite calm. The most emotional guy on the stage was definitely Incontrol. life was actually surprised and happy that he lost ... | ||

Not sure you'd have had many people give him that much credit at the time. Whether he deserved it or not. All kill was incredible and just as this last match very few people really thought it would happen. | ||
